22 more NGOs quit ADAB

Yet another 22 NGOs have withdrawn their membership from the Association of Development Agencies of Bangladesh (ADAB) and expressed solidarity with the National NGO Coordination Committee (NNCC), said a press release signed by Shamsul Huda, member secretary of NNCC yesterday.

According to the press release the NGOs also asked the NCC to organise the national convention on February.

The 22 NGOs are Gono Kalyan Trust (GKT), Songkolpo Trust (ST), SEDS, Bachte Chai Shamaj Unnayan Samity, Development Centre International (DCI), Development Society (DS), Borendra Development Organisation (BDO), Shrijoni Bangladesh, Bridge, TACD, Nazeer, Manoshika, Bangladesh Rural Improvement Foundation, Shapnil, LDRO, Agrani Mohila Samity (AMS), Sakrio Sangha, Alo, Soumik, Shadow, Jono Kalyan Shangstha and Ankur.

In a written statement, the 22 chief executives said for past one year leaders of several NGOs had been trying to transform the ADAB to a democratic, neutral organisation. However, they could not succeed because of the negative attitude of ADAB leaders.

They said their membership withdrawal was a protest against ADAB's 'undemocratic', 'unethical' and 'unconstitutional' activities.

Among others, the signatories of the statements are Mollik Md Ayiub, Md Sirajul Islam, Md Shafiuddin, Bhagabati Ghosh, Fakhrul Ferdous, Zaheerul Haq Bali, Akhter Hossain, Md. Joynal Abedin and Nadira Begum, chief executives of ST, SEDS, GCT, DS, DCI, Bridge, BDO, TACD and AMS respectively.
